so much for an early night

Last night smallclanger flaked out after a long feed at something like quarter to 11 and he was successfully transferred to his cot without so much as a peep. bopeepsheep went to bed not long after, and so did I except that I took out the rubbish first and loaded the dishwasher - it was about 11:30 by the time I went upstairs. So it was at exactly that moment that our darling baby decided to be a waily baby and then an awake baby (who was happy as long as I didn't put him down) for the next 20 minutes.

And as if to prove a point, he woke up again at 2, 5 and 8 (and probably one other time too, which my half-awake brain forgot the exact details of). He didn't do that for his Granny - reports indicate that he stayed asleep between 1am and 8am the previous night.
